    WOW Bob!! a productive day then! Bet you feel good though at getting everything sorted. You've done amazing with your debt payment since Dec too. Liking the new headings by the way.
    I've never thought of totalling my roadkill. Usually find it at work in the playground and when there's enough I buy a nice coffee courtesy of the wasteful students who throw away there loose change as they can't be bothered to have it in their pockets.

    Oh my goodness I bow down at your productivity, frugalness and plain awesomeness! Well done, I'm gonna nick the idea of material wipes to clean up instead of kitchen roll, my dh uses loads or the nice new tea towels I brought. I have plenty of his t-shirts to cut up!

    Ooh I forgot to tell you he Wombled a £10 note the other day when we were walking back from the beach, he gave it to the kids!

    I clearly need to up my game :D

    Have a good night x
